Shopping in Philadelphia

  1. A

    Gallery at Market East

    The Gallery at Market East is a seriously large shopping mall right in the heart of Center City and just the place to take a little retail stroll if you're sick of Philadelphia's museums and historical homes. All of the usual mall stores are to be found here, plus a few more interesting specialty shops.

    Italian Market

    The Italian Market is a highlight of South Philadelphia. The country's largest outdoor market, it's where butchers and artisans hawk produce and cheese, homemade pastas, incredible pastries and freshly slaughtered fish and meats, from lamb to pheasant.

    Baum's Dancewear

    Outfitting thespians since 1887, Baum's is a fourth-generation family-owned business. The large store carries ballet shoes, tap shoes, ballroom shoes, leotards, makeup, boas and a ton of wigs. If it has sequins, it's probably here.
